bingo.
Anyway, sadly, the engine plates are removed in the model used in the campaign, they were making clipping pbs.

I'll vouche for that! I tested the thing!  Venom almost lost it after reworking those things to avoid clipping, only to have it resurface.  I remember it well:

Delta: Venom...you're gonna scream...
Venom: No...
God, no...
Delta: The thrusters clip right through the hull.
Venom: S***!!!

shielding from sensors

[IceFire]

Its a fantastic fighter!  Now he just needs to provide the high-res texies for the in-game one and it'll look awesome(er)

I thought I asked people not to submit models that are being used in mods.

Alright, how about Renders for the end of January, and Models by the end of February? We'll do voting at two different times.
Renders can be of anything, as long as they're at least vaguely space-sim related, models, as before, must be original. Also, this time we aren't going to accept ones from pre-existing mods.

Sorry Shrike. I didn't know this.
That makes Woomeister's GTJ Eleutherios the only valid entry (as far as I'm aware) the fighter I entered is in GreyWolf's MOD.

I suppose so.

Actually, I think, since everyone's all busy and stuff, we'll extend the contest deadline.

Just as a little comment though, do you know why I wanted people to not bring in ships from mods?  Besides the fact that the Bastion won, (which just highlights the point I'm going to make perfectly) bringing ships from mods isn't showing off what you can do.  It's merely showing what you can do in FS.  And this isn't about FS models, it's about modelling in general.

Don't limit yourself to FS-type stuff, people are doing that too much.  It's a model, it should be nice and detailed.  People make render-quality models of ships from B5 or ST in truespace, so why can't you guys?

Get out of the FS box!
